My cousin makes these stuffed Mushrooms for every family get together and I am OBSESSED.
They are so amazing, you can never just eat 10. It is super easy to make these and they are a hit at every party I have taken them to. I just eye ball everything, so I am just going to include what you will need without specific measurements.. You can change things around depending on your own personal tastes!
YUMMMMM-
White Button Mushrooms
Green Chilies
Jimmy Dean Sausage
Cream Cheese
Cheddar, Mozzarella shredded Cheeses.
- Put Sausage in large skillet and cook on medium. (I usually use EVOO so meat doesn't stick to the bottom)
- While the Sausage is cooking mix the Cream Cheese, Chilies ( minced) , and Mozzarella together in a small bowl. ( I use fresh Green Chilies that I mince myself!)
- Set your oven to 400 degrees.
- Pull out all the steams of mushrooms and clean the insides out.
- When the Sausage is brown and crumbling, remove from heat and drain off the excess grease.
- While the Sausage cools down a bit, Set the caps into a large pan with sides.
- Mix the Sausage in with Cream Cheese mix.. Place spoonfuls in the Mushrooms.
- Sprinkle the Cheddar Cheese on top and cook till the Mushrooms are soft!
- - I usually cook for 15 to 20 minutes because I like my mushrooms not terrible soft, you can cook to your liking!
- Scoop them out of the pan with a (slotted) spoon as they will lose water while in the oven and arrange them on a plate.
- Serve warm. They reheat well, so you can make them ahead of time.
- *VARIATION : Use one 8oz. box of cream cheese to two 8oz. pkgs of sausage. It makes for a larger batch that is less rich and tastes just as good.
Now I usually cut bigger holes in the mushrooms to fit more mix in and I usually buy 2-3 packages of Mushrooms since the Sausage packs and Cream Cheese makes a lot of mix!
- I use Jimmy Dean Sausage and Philadelphia Fat Free Cream Cheese and low fat cheeses..
